I came for the 4 week group intensive beginner Hindi course at Zabaan. The best part was the instructors who are well trained and highly knowledgable of the language. The courses are well structured and include a healthy mix of instruction, speaking practice and writing practice. Although only a four week course for beginners, I am leaving able to have a much better knowledge of Hindi when around Hindi speaking friends as well as being able to communicate on basic things myself. Looking forward to continuing with the school in the future and would recommend for those seeking Hindi classes in Delhi.

I began learning Urdu four years ago with Zabaan but discontinued it for three years. I restarted with Ali about five months ago, with a speed of one page/ hour. I read my first novel slowly at this speed but within four months of weekly lessons, I completed this fantastic book in record time. I even stopped looking at my screen at night and took the novel to my bed! Rediscovered the excitement of reading after a long time , all thanks to Ali. He teaches with scientific and historical perspective, why a certain alphabet is used and why not another. This adds a special dimension to Urdu. I look forward to enriching my vocabulary with his guidance. He lends me big fat books to encourage me to read more. I simply love learning Urdu at zabaan/ Ali thank you .

I recently attended the free online Hindi writing course at Zabaan Language Institute, and it was a great experience. The instructor was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, patient, and very supportive, which made the sessions engaging and enjoyable.The course included helpful practice exercises and homework, which really encouraged me to work on my skills outside of class. It was clear the teacher cared about each student’s progress and was happy to answer questions and provide guidance.I’d definitely recommend this course to anyone looking to improve their Hindi writing skills and am interested in exploring more courses with Zabaan in the future.

Zabaan offers instruction of a quality that is on par-and may be even superior- to that of the best universities in the world. I took private Hindi lessons with Rachyita Gupta as my lead instructor and greatly appreciated her mastery of the language. The deep knowledge of linguistics she acquired through completion of a master’s degree and sheer passion clearly showed. It allowed her to explain concepts and how Hindi works in a way that is easy to understand for a non-native speaker. She took the time to develop an individualized learning plan for me, sparing me the drudgery of cookie-cutter curricula. She also focused on giving me tips for self-study so I can continue to learn autonomously when away from Delhi. Beyond language instructions, she proved willing to help me understand India better, including facets of its many cultures, how it is changing and the challenges it faces today. I found all of my instructors to be on time, well-prepared for lessons and highly responsive to my interests. In my opinion, the premium costs of the private lessons at Zabaan is well reflected in the quality of their teaching.
